I cleaned up my Inbox without clicking checkboxes! 00:47 tim_flatus OK, I'm going to compile minetest on debian - I haven't done this in a while, so ... 00:48 tim_flatus I want to install it in /usr/share/games/ - will make install do that? Or do I have to pass it some option 00:50 tim_flatus Neither tinoesroho's guide nor Calinou's script make that completely clear 00:54 tim_flatus I suppose I could just run make and copy it to the right place 00:57 Jordach !rtfm tim_flatus 00:57 MinetestBot tim_flatus, Someone thinks you should read the manual.

He was encouraging some players to befriend other players and then steal/grief them. 15:44 LazyJ He thought he was being clever by using PM's and leaving signs in secret places. 15:46 LazyJ kilbith may not agree to having the books logged. He has a history on our server and believes I am a puritanical tyrant. I don't expect any help from him. 15:47 VanessaE heh 15:48 VanessaE [Nickname: LazyJ, classification: "puritanical tyrant" ,.. .. .. ERROR...ERROR..... DOES NOT COMPUTE] 15:48 shadowzone VanessaE: Lol 15:49 VanessaE speak of the devil :) 15:49 kilbith LazyJ, kilbith is agree to log the content. 15:49 VanessaE someone is always reading the logs :) 15:51 kilbith indeed, and may not appreciate incrimination in back 16:05 LazyJ LazyJ: your homedecor is outdated :P 16:05 LazyJ (those chains have since been replaced) 16:05 LazyJ When will the chandeliers match the new chains? 16:05 VanessaE I don't yet know 16:06 LazyJ Are mesh nodes able to handle animations (the flames on the chandeliers)? 16:06 kilbith when i'll feel motivated to 16:06 VanessaE yep, that's easily done 16:07 VanessaE as long as "animations" can be done without moving parts of the model (in the case of the flames, that's a yes) 16:18 ipv6b No but seriously, you never heard of swaaws before? 16:18 VanessaE nope 16:19 ipv6b That proves the point that it is a new server...I was misinformed. 16:19 VanessaE not necessarily 16:20 ipv6b !seen swaaws 16:20 MinetestBot ipv6b: swaaws was last seen at 2014-12-15 21:14:47 UTC on #minetest 16:20 ipv6b but I talked to the admin just yesterday 16:20 ipv6b VanessaE, how so? 16:21 VanessaE there's always that possibility of some really old-ass server existing that no one's ever heard of, because it's not advertised 16:22 ipv6b I have no clue why so many people join it. Many are on tablets and maybe they run some app that only connects to this server. Has such a thing happened before or is my imagination running wild? 16:23 VanessaE I dunno 16:23 VanessaE but, 16:23 VanessaE that "just test" server gets a ton of activity for some reason 16:23 VanessaE even though, from what I'm told there's nothing to see there 16:24 shadowzone VanessaE: there isn't anything that happens there. 16:24 shadowzone It's the fact that it's an anarachy server that gives it some popularity. 16:24 VanessaE shadowzone: case in point. 16:24 ipv6b I found just test totally awesome. Anarchic but you can build a protection pretty easily, though I think mese is required. 16:24 VanessaE ipv6b: and yet, my FreeForAll server just sits there fallow. 16:25 VanessaE what does "just test" have that I don't? :P 16:25 shadowzone VanessaE: maybe set up an anarchy server, or adapt VE-FreeForAll into an anarchy server. 16:25 shadowzone VanessaE: no rules, that's what. 16:25 VanessaE shadowzone: it already IS anarchy 16:25 ipv6b well the server I'm on now is the only server I think that supports IPv6. That's why I'm on it. I'm sorry if that looks like a stupid reason to you :D 16:25 shadowzone just test has no rules whatsoever 16:25 VanessaE there are no rules there except what the users themselves create 16:26 ipv6b but I think that has nothing to do why so many players connect to it. 16:26 shadowzone VanessaE: maybe they think "VanessaE set it up, must be boring cause of all her rules and stuff" 16:26 VanessaE :-/ 16:26 ipv6b the servers advertises in its description about IPv6 so that peeked my curiousity... 16:26 shadowzone I don't get any players on my server. 16:26 * shadowzone burst out laughing 16:27 shadowzone ATP what a funny name. 16:27 shadowzone makes me think of A Toilet Paper, not sure why, but it does. 16:28 ipv6b VanessaE, don't you have any regulars on any of your servers? 16:28 VanessaE sure, plenty of regulars 16:28 ipv6b well, at least some people. 16:28 VanessaE but for any one server, not all that one 16:28 LazyJ Quantity of players is not necessarily a good thing. 16:28 VanessaE not all that many I eman 16:29 shadowzone VanessaE: My server got shut down. 16:29 VanessaE why 16:29 VanessaE ? 16:29 shadowzone server machine was powered off why the host was away. 16:29 ipv6b Also swaaws uses a version of minetest that doesn't have jungle trees. 16:29 VanessaE ipv6b: wow, old server 16:29 LazyJ I haven't checked yet, but does "Just Test" have a lot of mods or just a minimum? 16:29 ipv6b I compared with my version of minetest, it generated exact same terrain but all jungle trees were normal trees. 16:30 VanessaE oh, just a modified game? 16:30 shadowzone It's using v7 16:30 shadowzone Mapgen v7 16:31 * shadowzone pokes #minetest 16:31 ipv6b Most people I ask on the server, not only this one but also on just test use tablets to play. 16:31 shadowzone anyone alives, did I kill chat? 16:31 shadowzone I use a PC 16:31 shadowzone always. 16:31 ipv6b I had a hard time finding somebody using a computer. 16:32 shadowzone unless I get a tablet and use the official version. 16:32 ipv6b and Vikings was all about hiding the activity from their parents. 16:32 shadowzone the what? 16:32 ipv6b by using mobile phones or tablets. 16:32 shadowzone Oh.. 16:32 ipv6b There was a server called VikingCrafters. 16:32 shadowzone I remember that. 16:33 shadowzone I don't hide it from my parents that I play Minetest 16:35 shadowzone I killed chat again. :/ 16:36 ipv6b I'm trying to understand why these servers are so popular. The server I'm on is pure vanilla. 16:36 ipv6b and its old, like VanessaE mentioned. I know it also because there are no jungle trees and no cotton. 16:37 ipv6b and more than 1 player plays it on their Ipads 16:37 ipv6b "survival craft" I think it was called. So far I've stumbled upon "buildcraft", "worldcraft". They always invent new names for the app stores. 16:38 ipv6b and the reviews seem to be mostly 5 stars. 17:26 ipv6b Somebody managed to bring down the server 17:27 ipv6b I should talk to admin later today to see if I'm to blame for this, and what we should do. I hope we can at least upgrade to latest version of minetest. 17:28 * ipv6b will also try suggest disabling fire and boats 17:33 ipv6b at least fire 17:38 * ipv6b thinks it's time for some IPv4 gaming 17:39 ipv6b at least until we get back online... 18:28 Krock hi? 18:36 ipv6b Hi Krock 19:13 ipv6b Has anyone noticed that boats can cause lag? 19:15 STHGOM network lag or frame per second lag? 19:23 ipv6b Hmm...yes now I realize my question wasn't very specific. 19:31 ipv6b Has anybody noticed the issue that if you place 4 boats exactly next to each other in a 2x2 area with water and you walk on top of them, a repeating 'walking' sound is heard. Like my character is walking repeatedly and very quickly although it is standing completely still on the boats. 19:31 ipv6b (was trying to find a way for others to easily reproduce this issue) Maybe a minor issue. 19:32 ipv6b or just a "glitch" that causes no harm. 19:35 STHGOM it does for me too 19:37 Dartmouth its probably a glitch, boats have a few. Try placing a boat while dirving one and "swtiching" to the one you just placed :P 19:37 Dartmouth driving* switching* 19:37 STHGOM ive noticed "tap dancing" other times too 19:37 STHGOM dont remember exactly when tho 19:39 ipv6b brb 20:53 rubenwardy http://wiki.mcrcoderdojo.org.uk/index.php/Make_Your_Own_Easter_Egg 20:55 rubenwardy comments in here may be interesting: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/manchestercoderdojo 21:02 ipv6b The boats really bounce up and down when hitting running water... 21:21 Jordach rubenwardy, thought it was unrelated m8 21:22 rubenwardy Heh? 21:22 rubenwardy The group is about a gathering which want to include MT 21:22 rubenwardy Oh, the egg 21:22 rubenwardy http://wiki.mcrcoderdojo.org.uk/index.php/Make_Your_Own_Easter_Egg in Minetest 21:24 est31 " Minetest -- it is like Minecraft but much better for programming. " 21:32 rubenwardy What do you think about a project to provide resources for con (as in con in Comicon) to show off Minetest? 21:32 rubenwardy Leaflets, videos, subgames 21:32 rubenwardy Focused around getting kids to code 21:35 * Amaz wonders who is moving his mod topics withou him asking... 21:36 rubenwardy Lol. The last few times Vanessa E I think has moved them without me asking, as I always ask for them to be moved. 21:36 VanessaE not me. 21:37 rubenwardy Meh 21:37 Amaz I'm not cross or anything, just curious at this phenemona! The magic mod moving mod. 21:37 rubenwardy automagikally 22:56 Calinou https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=778853 23:01 est31 how can you sit down? 23:01 paramat hi hmmmm, i'd still like to see you contribute mgv8, if you want to and it's fun for you of course =) 23:48 LazyJ VanessaE, BlockMen posted the avatar font problem fix as a pull request. I tried it out using your bitmap fonts and it works! The playername above the avatar's head is readable from a distance and gets smaller in proportion as you get closer to the player but still remains a legible size when standing near the player. File:line to edit: src/content_cao.cpp:965. Change getBuiltInFont to getSkin()->getFont 23:54 ipv6b Hi Sokomine. I saw you connect. 23:55 Nihao Hello Minetesters! 23:57 Nihao I encounter a strange thing with a (for me) new tool: The sickle. 23:57 Nihao I like the idea, not to destroy the earth whilst farming. 23:58 Nihao The point is that it does not farm that well on my server -- and that it can be used to remove doors and chests. 23:58 Nihao It removes even chests with content, the content is lost in that case. 23:59 LazyJ Hmm... That's not supposed to happen. 23:59 Nihao LazyJ: Sure not. 23:59 Nihao But server logs are formal. 23:59 Nihao Somebody knew that and used the tool for stealing and destroying.
